Good
"This is a straightforward cask wine that is clean and fresh and has a good mouthfeel. Although it is less intense and less fruity than some, it offers pleasant drinking."

Peter Forrestal, Quaff 2011, October 2010

"Among the De Bortoli 2-litre cask, the semillon sauvignon blanc has tropical, passionfruit and soft jellybean notes..."

Ken Gargett, Brisbane Courier Mail, February 2009

"There are some clean, lightly grassy flavours here and so this cask is pleasant, easy drinking."

Peter Forrestal, Quaff, December 2008

"From the producers hell-bent on delivering top value, this cask has all the best sales pitch splashed across it: 'New, new, new, premium reserve.' In the glass, it has quite a developed golden hue, with decent lift and lemon freshness as well as a crisp acidity and finish. Just fine."

Stuart MacGill, Adelaide Advertiser, January 2008
